Since 1985, the World Teleport Association (WTA) has been the only trade association that focuses on the business of satellite communications from the ground up. At the core of its membership are the world's most innovative operators of teleports, from independents to multinationals, niche service providers to global hybrid carriers.

Advocating for their Interests

We provide a unified and respected voice when it comes to relationships with strategic partners in the sky and on the ground, and the evolution of technology and applications. We educate partners and customers on the tremendous value that teleports bring to the global contribution and distribution chain for video, audio, data, and voice.
